À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de Charlotte Hindle

Charlotte Hindle was coordinating author for this book, and also wrote the following chapters : "International Volunteering, An Overview", "Choosing Your Volunteer Experience", "The Practicalities" and "Coming Home". During her gap year Charlotte travelled overland from England to Australia. In Melbourne, she temped as a foot courier before landing a job at Lonel Planet (LP). She worked at LP's Head Office for three years.
In 1991 she returned to England to set up LP's UK office which she ran until June 2002. She then took a mini-career break to spend the summer with her growing family and to consider more flexible, child-friendly work options. Lonely Planet then approached her to contribute to the following books : The Gap Year Book ; The Career Breal, Book ; and The Travel Writing Book. When Charlotte helped update the first edition of The Gap Year Book she re-wrote the "Volunteering & Conservation" chapter.
Since then, Charlotte has been fascinated by this sector and has written newspaper and travel articles on it and organised debates and talks on the subject. Charlotte is waiting for her two young daughters to be old enough to volunteer with her : they plan to work with street children in Latin America. Charlotte is a freelance travel journalist and photographer. Over the years she has written for the following LP guides : Australia, Mediterranean Europe, Walking in Britain, England and Britain and her photographs appear in many others.
She also writes for Wanderlust magazine and the Independent newspaper.
